CBI is a nonprofit organization established in 1997 that works to promote ethnic inclusion and equity in Charlotte, NC.
关于我们
Community Building Initiative (CBI) is a nonprofit organization established in 1997 by government and civic leaders that works to achieve racial and ethnic inclusion and equity in the Charlotte-Mecklenburg community. Charlotte-Mecklenburg is marked by its rich identity as an historic New South community - an identity that continually evolves as its population becomes more racially, ethnically and culturally diverse. Patterns of racial and social trust that affect the community's health and viability are as challenging today as they have been in the past. CBI helps the people and institutions of this community study, understand and act on both the opportunities and challenges that arise as Charlotte-Mecklenburg experiences these dramatic changes. CBI convenes and engages individuals, organizations and institutions in a structured and effective process around issues of racial and ethnic inclusion and equity. CBI is a vital part of the community's capacity for addressing broad issues around demographic, cultural and social change rooted in race and ethnicity and serves in this role as: a collaborator and convener an educator and communicator a strategic partner to individuals, institutions and organizations

Congratulations to Charlotte Fire Department's Andre Fuller (LU40 Class 12) on this well-deserved recognition! #LeadersUnder40
Today, we celebrate Charlotte Fire Captain Andre Fuller, who was honored with the First Responder Award for his extraordinary compassion and leadership during mental health crises. Captain Fuller’s dedication goes beyond firefighting—his Crisis Intervention Team training has saved lives and brought hope to those in their darkest moments. Standing alongside his proud mother, Betty, at this morning’s ceremony, Captain Fuller reminded us all of the power of empathy, community, and service. His work embodies the very best of what it means to serve. Read his inspiring story and learn how he’s making a difference:?bit.ly/4fWd3N8

??Have you ever considered how compassionate leadership and a sense of belonging are interconnected with employee well-being??? Last week, during our “Shifting the Narrative” workshop, our DEIB team at YMCA of Greater Charlotte collaborated with Janeen Bryant from Community Building Initiative. We explored the physiological, psychological, and business impacts of compassionate leadership, highlighting how it drives higher productivity, fosters innovation, and reduces turnover in the workplace. Using Social Emotional Intelligence and creating creating a psychologically safe work environment is essential for cultivating a thriving work culture! #DEIB #Community #Culture #EmployeeWellbeing #CompassionateLeadership Lydia McGinnis Natalia Flores, APR Natalie Ramsey Pamela Hempstead Anna Linares Crystal Little
